Dakko Dakko today announced that Scram Kitty and his Buddy on Rails will launch on the Nintendo eShop for Wii U in Europe on May 15th, priced £8.99 / €9.99.

Featuring a unique control system that allows for 360 degree platforming action and thrilling 2D shooting, Scram Kitty and his Buddy on Rails sees players glide along colourfully glowing rails, leaping over the space station’s ample hazards and blasting back endless hordes of enemy rodents. The titular Scram Kitty offers helpful tips and feedback in real-time via the TV screen as the player battles on the Wii U GamePad.

For the truly awesome and dedicated, Scram Kitty and his Buddy on Rails features an addictive arcade-style ‘ Challenge Mode’ wherein players race the clock to free as many cats as possible and make it out of the space station in one piece. Players can share their challenge mode score via the game’s Miiverse community.
